Cost week started with a phone call that I knew was coming
sooner or later, but thought was still about a month away. My support account at MTW had
tanked. It was before noon on
Thanksgiving Day when I got this call. Although there were many things this week that
revolved around financial matters
A
true blue Aussie saying goes “Can’t be bothered.” The rough translation of this would be, “Meh, it’s not worth
it.” As I reflected on the idea of
“cost” this phrase kept coming to mind.
Generally it was followed by the thought of how much of a bother am
I? Everything costs us something…
time, money, energy, resources, pride, emotion… I cost Jesus everything. And he didn’t hesitate to pay that cost. How much more willing
should that make me to pay my time, pride, energy, ect… for Him?
I
am making a real effort to not say, “I can’t be bothered.” Because I’ve been called to
bother, we all have.

Maybe this is a silly question, but what's cost week?
It's the theme B and I set for that week.
